Chapter 416: An Earthquake Is Coming

Although he heard Guo Lin say that the demon girl was not in the grass house, Hu Tuo was still not at ease, and decided to investigate it himself.

If it is really as Guo Lin said, then he will start to disrupt Oasis City.

On the second day, Hu Tuo led a team of guards straight to the border between Oasis City and the desert.

When he saw the grass hut in the distance, Hu Tuo stopped and ordered the two guards with higher mana to change their shapes and change positions to go over and take a look.

The two guards trembled and shifted to the grass hut, pricked up their ears and listened for a long time, but they really didn't hear any movement in the house, and then they had the courage to walk into the grass hut one after the other.

A moment later, the two reappeared outside the thatched hut and waved to Hu Tuo and his party from a distance.

Seeing this, Hu Tuo led the guards and walked towards the grass hut in a mighty manner.

There are two rooms inside and outside the dilapidated thatched hut, and there is not even a gate.

Hu Tuo was just about to walk into the house when he suddenly felt a gust of wind in the desert behind him, blowing the yellow sand all over the ground high.

Some of the guards guarding outside the hut were caught off guard by the fierce wind and sand, and their mouths, noses, and eyes were momentarily fascinated by the sand.

For a moment, the guards coughed or whispered and cursed, rubbing their mouths, noses, and eyes, which were bewitched by the sand.

Hu Tuo was also shocked in his heart, and hurriedly covered his mouth and nose with his hands, squinted his eyes and looked back at the desert not far away.

This gust of sand came very strangely......

But before he could see the fame, he faintly felt that in addition to the protruding wind and sand, the ground in the desert in front of him was shaking......

The tremors came from far and near, and they were fierce.

If you listen closely, you can still hear the low chirp coming from under the sand.

"This ...... What is that sound? Why do I feel the ground shaking?"

"Ahh......h The ground is moving under my feet, and this is going to be an earthquake?"

"Will ?......the ground collapse?

“......”

For a moment, the guards panicked, rubbing their eyes that were fascinated by the sand, trying to see what was happening in front of them as soon as possible.

But the tremor was like a large stone dropped from a calm lake, and the waves stirred up, and the ripples dispersed, and soon all was calm again.

It didn't take five breaths before and after.

As the ground calmed down, the wind and sand gradually receded, and then you looked at the desert as if nothing had happened.

Hu Tuo dusted off the yellow sand on his face, and while looking at a few guards who were still in shock, he scolded:

"The desert area is so changeable, you can't wait for it to be strange and disturb people's hearts!"

The guards craned their necks and bowed their heads, and no one dared to say more.

Seeing that the guards were all afraid, Hu Tuo quietly calmed down his heart, which had been beating violently from the ground, turned around again, and walked towards the grass hut.

The thatched hut is very small, and the inner and outer rooms are rolled up with the thick cloth curtains, and they are immediately clear to everyone.

As Guo Lin said, it is extremely simple......

Several guards hugged Hu Tuo and walked into the house, and the already small grass hut was immediately cramped.

Hu Tuo paced to the table and saw that the table was really a thick layer of dust, which confirmed Guo Lin's statement that this house had not been inhabited for a long time.

The two guards who entered the inner room first to inspect quickly walked out and said to Hu Tuo:

"Lord of the city, there is nothing suspicious inside!"

Hu Tuo nodded with satisfaction, turned around and glanced at the grass hut again, and walked out.

The enchantress wasn't here, and he could finally put his mind at ease.

And yesterday, he carefully questioned the guards who had been patrolling the Oasis City recently, and they all said that they had never seen any suspicious person similar to the demon girl.

Today, when he entered the thatched hut to investigate, Hu Tuo even began to wonder if he was dazzled and mistaken that night.

How could such a simple and cramped grass hut be the hiding place of the seemingly clean and refreshing demon girl?

Walking out of the thatched hut, Hu Tuo took the lead in leading the guards to return home.

After a few steps, he stopped.

He turned around again and threw the fireball in his hand towards the grass hut.

In an instant, the thatched hut burst into flames, and the fire quickly spread wantonly on the hut, burning more and more vigorously in a blink of an eye......

"Hahaha......"

Seeing that the grass hut was burned out in an instant, Hu Tuo suddenly felt in a good mood.

Regardless of whether this is the place where the demon girl rests, it seems that only by burning it to ashes can Hu Tuo's injured body and mind get a little comfort on the eighth day of the fifth month.

With Hu Tuo's smug and hideous smile, the grass house finally burned to ashes.

The wind blew and the ashes scattered......

There was no longer the little grass hut that watched over the desert.

"Let's go, go to Oasis City!"

Hu Tuo pointed in the direction of Oasis City and shouted at the guards.

......

Meishui, who is far away in Norma Village, if he knew that the grass hut that had been sheltering his master and himself from the wind and rain for many years at this time had been burned down, I was afraid that he would have to fight hard with Hu Tuo.

It's a pity that he doesn't know. And by the time he knew, it was too late.

Since Lu Yunchu and Baozhu left Oasis City, Meishui has started to run at both ends of Oasis City and Norma Village.

In the first few days, I was worried that if Master returned and couldn't find someone else, he would make a round trip the next day.

But then he came back to his senses and laughed at himself for being stupid.

If Master hadn't come back and hadn't seen him, he would have thought that he was in Norma Village.

In the past ten years, in addition to Oasis City, he has only stayed in Norma Village.

After figuring it out, he simply stayed in Norma Village and rarely returned to Oasis City.

It's not that he's greedy and jingle, or that he can't bear the loneliness and has to go to Norma Village to have a good time.

Instead, he found that since Lu Yunchu and Baozhu left Norma Village, when he returned to the village again, Elder Luo informed him that the seal at the bottom of the lake seemed to have changed again.

It was not so much a change as a decrease in the number and amplitude of the seal's vibrations.

The people of Norma, who were accustomed to bearing the violent tremors of the ground for an hour or two a day, were not used to the sudden and almost no longer shaking for a day......

Of course, this adaptation was quickly forgotten by the villagers.

It's just that Elder Luo felt faintly uneasy.

He also went down to the lake with Mei Shui and Bi Haizhu to investigate again, and even waited for two or three hours, just to observe the vision of the seal.

But the seal really ceased to have any abnormalities and gradually calmed down.

The calm made Elder Luo feel weird, and he always felt that under this calm, something big would happen.

It was precisely because of this that Mei Shui did not dare to leave Norma Village easily, and observed the seal with Elder Luo every day.

Until a few days ago, the villagers who had just gone out to pick cistanche suddenly returned to the village in a panic.

When asked about the reason, it was found that the desert was unprovoked, and the ground was accompanied by violent shaking.

Windblown sand and rocks are indeed common in the desert, and they are often caused by sandstorms.

But the ground shook violently, and this vision would not occur unless it was a monster in the desert who was causing trouble.

After a few days, Meishui went out of the village to investigate in the desert.

It was only after this investigation that it was discovered that the tremors occurred every half day or so, and that they were not caused by demons.

And Mei Shui also found that the center of the vibration was gradually spreading from the depths of the desert to the surrounding areas.
